From what I've played so far I'd say an 8/10 would have been about right. The controls feel so smooth and fluid and they were my one worry about the game but it plays so much better than it looks in the videos. Definitely glad I purchased this. Also, people worried about aiming and accuracy with the guns - it's actually a really good balance like if you fire in bursts it's accurate but the recoil is realistic so if you're just spitting the bullets out it's harder to aim but it feels real. I don't know if people are worried about this actually maybe it was just me but in gameplay videos on gametrailers it looked really hard to aim it's not I just think the people who were playing it must have been bad Tongue

Its a decent game at best.. I beat it on hard in 5 n a half hours.. Im tired of games like Frontlines: FOW and COD4 who have these short singleplayer modes then rely on the multiplayer to make up for it, and in this case AO2 multiplayer sort of does.. Its fun, but defantly more agervating then fun.. If i could go back in time i wouldnt have bought the game and jus saved my money for Condemned 2, but i cant.. So ill tell you guys this, RENT IT FIRST, then if you like it buy it.. But for most it'll be a total disapointment/letdown.

Ok! I got frustrated how the target reticule sits on the rightt, would be nice to have a button to swap from left to right. IMO this game would reach 9.0 - -9.5 if they fixed this. Pimping weapons FTW

Couldn't of said it better, this reviewer is by far the most stupid I've encountered, looks like I won't be coming back to the site :(

Edge magazine just gave this game a 4 / 10. Which makes VG.com's 6/10 look pretty generous Wink

"How is the game? In cooperative mode, it's "alright.""

"The game itself is often strange in its pacing, leaping to unnecessary cutscenes of the characters opening doors, constantly drawing players out of whatever engaging moments the game manages to generate. Every event these clips wrest from the player was an opportunity to reinforce camaraderie with actual gameplay."

The truth is slowly seeping out.

I really don't see what the critics hate about this game.. sure it's nothing too out of the ordinary but it's still an enjoyable game and very fun to play with a mate. The fact that VG gave Kane and Lynch a 7 and this a 6 I find strange as Kane and Lynch was just plain awful, no way is Ao2 worse than that!

Tom did this review and Will did the Kane and Lynch review, and you have to keep in mind that no matter how impartial reviewers strive to be a bit of bias will always creep in. (Tom might loathe EA, Will might have a penchant for robbing banks).

I think it's Famitsu that have four reviewers decide the score for a game and then give a total out of 40, I'd love to see the same sort of system in the western gaming press but it's basically four times the workload for reviewers so we make do with metacritic and gamerankings complied averages, which works just as well.

As for Army of Two, you only have to take a quick look at the sub forums over at XBox.com to realise that it might be worth a bit more research before parting with your money.

This game is ****ing sweet... 1) the close combat is my favorite option (they can choke slam somebody to DEATH).. thats priceless.... and 2) I think that not knowing where bullets come from is kind of the point of being an open gun fight. I mean, to an extent you'd know, but I find that once I find out who shot me, I just run at him and pump kick the turban off his head.

Great game, don't listen to this guy.

Really? Most of the guys I've seen over there are in love with this game - infact I played the versus mode with 3 guys I met on the Ao2 xbox forums today and we had a great time.

To be honest the only downside to this game is how short it is but then again after other games being much the same (Call of Duty 4) you can't really complain about that.
